Chapter 14203 A Mere Heavenly Abyss
Ling Xiao gritted his teeth: "Therefore, we must set off now and get to the Tianyuan Dynasty as quickly as possible, so as to deliver a fatal blow to them before they can gain a foothold!"

"understood!"

Ji Mingkong's gaze suddenly sharpened, and his already bright eyes now shone with an even more intense light, without the slightest hesitation.

Her fighting spirit surged wildly, solidifying into sharp, piercing beams that swept through the void.

The void seemed unable to withstand this powerful fighting spirit, and instead hummed and emitted a series of muffled buzzing sounds, as if trembling in anticipation of the impending battle.

"His Majesty!"

A voice, urgent as if burning a cauldron, suddenly rang out from behind.

Shangguan Yue was extremely anxious and hurriedly walked out of the crowd.

Her petite figure appeared exceptionally small beneath the vast and empty palace, like a fallen leaf drifting in a raging wind.

However, at this moment her eyes were filled with determination and resolve.

She jogged up to Ling Xiao's back, and looking at his resolute figure, a sense of awe and worry welled up in her heart.

Her legs went weak, and she almost collapsed to the ground. Her voice trembled with a deep tremor, as if every word was squeezed from the very depths of her heart: "Even if... even if there are countless difficulties, if the road ahead is full of thorns, and if every step could lead to an abyss of no return; even if the enemy is like a ferocious beast, baring its fangs and claws, ready to devour us; I beg you to bring Shui Gui with you!"

"The Water Devils are an elite force carefully cultivated by the Empire. They are battle-hardened and exceptionally strong."

"Your safety is the cornerstone of the Batian Empire... If anything were to happen to you, what would become of the Batian Empire?"

Ling Xiao remained motionless, like a majestic mountain standing between heaven and earth, unmoved by wind and rain.

Only that icy will, capable of freezing time and space, came clearly like a biting wind: "Alright, no need to say more."

"The Water Demon is left to you to guard the Overlord Empire."

Although the Batian Empire appears stable now, undercurrents are surging, and various forces are eyeing it covetously.

With the Water Demon here, the empire's rear will be secure, allowing you to have no worries about the future.

My mind is made up; there's no need to persuade me further.

His words were sharp and precise, each one carrying supreme authority, embedded in the laws of nature, allowing no room for disobedience. It was as if anyone who dared to defy him would suffer the merciless punishment of the laws.

Shangguan Yue stared blankly at the back of that figure, which was not tall but seemed to be able to support the weight of the entire Batian Empire. The worry in her heart surged up in waves.

Ling Xiao is too strong. His strength is like a dazzling sun, shining brightly, so strong that even the people of the Tianyuan Dynasty have to be wary of him.

However, this unparalleled power seemed to her to be a bottomless abyss that devoured the blazing sun.

Throughout history, countless names have shone as brightly as stars, once dominating all directions and invincible, yet ultimately they all fell under this almost arrogant isolation.

Whether due to underestimating their enemy or fighting alone, they ultimately met a tragic end.

She could almost see Ling Xiao surrounded and helpless, and a pang of pain shot through her heart.

Her dry lips moved, a thousand words rolling in her throat, wanting to persuade Ling Xiao again, but when the words reached her lips, she didn't know where to begin.

In the end, she turned into a silent breath of turbid air, which pressed heavily on her heart like a huge stone, making it hard for her to breathe.

Just as Ling Xiao resolutely left Batian City with Ling Bi and Xiao Lianzhu, it seemed as if an invisible force quietly changed the atmosphere of Batian City.

The tension and anxiety that had permeated the city intensified as they left.

Ling Xiao stood tall and straight, his steps firm, each one seemingly resonating with the hearts of everyone present.

Ling Bi followed closely behind him, her figure as light as a swallow, her eyes revealing agility and alertness, always paying attention to the movements around her.

Xiao Lianzhu moved with light, graceful steps, her temperament gentle yet resilient, her slightly raised chin revealing her inner pride and unyielding spirit.

The three walked further and further away, their figures gradually blurring, until they finally disappeared into the boundless sky, leaving only a faint, almost imperceptible trace, as if telling the story of the journey they were about to embark on.

Shangguan Yue stood quietly in place, her gaze fixed on the receding figure, her eyes filled with worry and concern.

After a long while, she slowly withdrew her gaze and turned to look at Ji Mingkong.

That one glance contained so many complex emotions: worry for Ling Xiao's safety, confusion about the unknown situation, and a hint of unspoken expectation.

Ji Mingkong noticed Shangguan Yue's gaze, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, a smile that exuded confidence and composure: "Are you blaming me for not stopping His Majesty?"

Her voice was clear and melodious, like a mountain spring flowing through the air, and it sounded exceptionally clear in the slightly oppressive atmosphere.

As she spoke, her gaze also fell upon the figure that was about to disappear into the horizon. Her eyes shone with a firm light, and her voice was as steady as the unshakable foundation of an ancient mountain, without the slightest fluctuation: "Don't worry, I know him better than you do."

"He is like an extremely sharp sword; the more difficult the challenge, the more his potential is brought out."

"The mere Tianyuan Dynasty is nothing more than a stepping stone on his path forward; no one can stop him."

"Even the Heavenly Abyss Saint Lord, if he encountered him, could only consider himself unlucky and obediently lower his proud head."

Ji Mingkong's words were filled with trust and admiration for Ling Xiao, as if Ling Xiao were an invincible being in the world, and no difficulty could stop him.

Shangguan Yue's lips twitched slightly, a helpless expression flashing across her face before she let out a soft sigh.

Indeed, she doesn't seem to know Ling Xiao very well.

In her memory, Ling Xiao was sometimes mysterious and unpredictable, and sometimes domineering and unfathomable.

Just when she thought Ling Xiao was no good, he would always show a potential that would shock her.

Just like last time when facing a powerful enemy, when everyone thought Batian City was about to fall into a desperate situation, Ling Xiao descended like a god, using his extraordinary strength and wisdom to turn the tide and defeat the enemy.

From then on, Shangguan Yue knew that Ling Xiao possessed infinite possibilities and could never be judged by common sense.

At this moment, Ling Xiao's figure, like a phantom formed from nothingness, silently hovered before the border of the Tianyuan Dynasty.

He hovered there silently, his gaze deep and cold, as if he could pierce through the thick fog before him and see the secrets within the Tianyuan Dynasty.

He exuded a powerful aura, which spread outwards like a surging tide, causing the surrounding air to freeze.
